TEGUCIGALPA, July 5 (Reuters) - Honduran airport authorities refused a plane carrying ousted President Manuel Zelaya permission to land in the capital on Sunday as he attempted to return home a week after a coup.

The control tower at Tegucigalpa airport told the pilot that the plane ran the risk of being intercepted if it tried to land, according to an audio stream of the airport's communications heard on an aviation website.
